Wifi issue - Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Questions & Answers

Hello community,
1. I have a low wifi signal - about 10-12 dbm less then my old lg g3 or lg g5 or galaxy j7 pro - seams it is just an integrated wifi antenna issue and there is no way to fix it
2. When scanning wifi networks I have a very not stable results: even when the signal is excellent about 55-60dbm the ssid is appear and goes all the time occasionally - seams it is a wifi driver bug
Especially I see it when using WIFI analyzer.
Couple of days before I opened thread with Sony support and don't have answer.
I must have the WI-FI card working well !
Someone have the same issues?
Someone have any ideas about fixing the low wifi signal ?
Thanks,
p.s the wifi connection is stable with day by day standard usage.

hi
I CANT EVEN USE WIFI
like u said,i found my signals are very weak at the first.
i think its just a bug and didnt care about it
however 1 week later my phone suddenly cannot connect to any wifi.all the wifi spots are shown as almost no signal and it will repeat"connecting,saved"'
and i found this is a serious problem,used Xperia companion to fix that
But it didnt work and i couldnt turn on the wifi option now.
it will reboot when im trying to turn on the wifi option.
i think its likely to be a hardware issue,but my LTE worked very well without problem.
im very Confusing now

TILIT2 WiFi signal strength

I am using TILT2. Currently it is HARDSPL and enjoying latest Energy ROM.
My question not related to ROM, as it happened started from official, but I can not find any other person complaining for it.
Signal strength for WiFi is really low. Even if I located close to router it show 50%. Max. If I open device and take my hands away it may go max to 60%
I use Fuze, original tilt, other phones before and never have this problem. I am still in first 30day usage and can return that phone and get other one, if this one defected. Just want to know if that is problem with my phone, or it general problem people just silent about? Please let me know how well your phone receive WiFi signal compare to your prior phones, devices.
BTW I did change WiFi setting to max performance, so it not power setting issue.
i have wifi problems too. doesn't work well unless you're standing next to the damn router
Same here. Signal blows something hard. WPA doesn't connect for me either....
Same here on VZW. Though i am able to connect to my wpa2 network after installing the Touch Pro2 Cleanup by GoodThings2Life
Similar problems here. My wifi and bluetooth signal sucks. Have to hold phone up to computer to get signal for bluetooth and to get wifi signal I have to hold the phone close to router and still do not get full bars.

wifi problem 2.3.3

Regards
I have a problem with wifi after I put update on 2.3.3
whether it can solve this problem with wifi.
I always shoot and it turns the wifi network.
be a good wifi network signal then disappears
Same problem here
This is a very serious problem. Get ur act together HTC, this is just unacceptable!
Are you rooted? HTC raised the signal strength at which the connection would be dropped, there is a fix if you are rooted, otheewise you are stucm and will have to wait for HTC to correct this.
Sent from my Desire HD
Have you tried another radio? of course be careful if you do change it
same issue, though htc say that its a "new feature" to provide a seamless mobile broadband experience by automatically chosing the strongest signal. whatever you say htc
i just disable mobile data at home, so it cant jump back to 3g and stays on wifi. the annoying thing with this is that i forget to enable mobile data when leaving the house.
i hope they sort it out, and that this new feature isn't rolled out across their other products
I am having the same problem. At work, my wifi connection is weak, but was always functional. Now, I cannot connect to my work wifi. On top of that, my battery drains twice as fast on my phone, and I'm thinking that it's due to the phone always scanning and trying to connect to the wifi signal. If it's true that HTC changed the level at which the wifi signal is dropped, this was a terrible decision.

I think this may answer/point to the problem I'm having since installing the Gingerbread RUU. I use the quick settings app from the market and pre-gingerbread it used to switch between wi-fi/mobile pretty seemlessly, turning off the unused option. Now if there's no wi-fi connection that option seems to stay on (probably searching) while it's connected to mobile data. As above, my battery is draining like a sieve.

Same problem for me with Original Rom.
so i tried the Revoloution HD 5.1.4 and same problem again!
Hi guys until HTC release an OTA fix (that's if they do) the only way to resolve this is to root and then try some different ROM and radio combinations until you find one that works for you.
I find the ROM and radio from my signature work really well on WiFi but if you are going to do this make sure and root, gain S-OFF and ENG S-OFF. Also make sure you have the correct RIL for the ROM and radio that you are using
There are lots of threads on the dev section that guide you through this.
Wifi connecting
I have a similar problem with wifi connection. Only it doesn't disconnect during a connection but when establishing a wifi connection it takes much longer than it used to on Froyo. Anyone else noticed this?
i have problem too with wifi
I really hope htc has stopped the updates and resumes with a new build with the wifi problem fixed
The issue is with the Gingerbread Sense ROMs.

WiFi problems with routers
Hi there,
Same problem here. Both my WiFi router and phone say signal and reception quality are perfect and connection it stable, but data won't flow.
I'm having this problem with my Speedtouch (WEP key) router at home, whereas a Sitecom router at the office works fine (WPA etc. key).
Tried some work arounds, without success
Regards
***EDIT***
I can add that it has nothing to do with the reported threshold of -88dB signal strength. As I checked that with the *#*#4636#*#* option and both higher and lower values of the WiFi reception don't make any difference. The problem persists.
***EDIT v2***
The suggestion posted elsewhere to change from WEP to WPA didn't work out either
***EDIT v3***
Reverted back to ARHD 3.7 and WiFi is running fine again .
Hope some fix will be found soon!
Regards,
Is there any solution. I am trying to downgrade the radio but no chance.
If I use LeeDroid or Revolution will this same problem be there?

WLAN Signal extemly low (1 bar @ hotspot )

Hello together!
I have a problem with my Desire
I'm using CM7 since months without troubles.
But from one night to the other my wlan signal is extremly low, i have one bar of signal strength directly at the hotspot (no problems with other mobile phones or notebooks etc)
After that i tried many things:
newest radio, newest CM7, a new middle case ... without success.
The GPS signal is good ...
I think the Bluetooth signal is also not so good, but i don't have a reference here.
So i hope anybody can help me here!
Thanks pmneo
but does your wifi work ok , i mean are u able to surf on ur phone with wifi ??
or do u have to sit near the hotspot for that ?
i can surf about 3-5 meters around the hotspot.
Before i got that problem i was able to surf everywhere in the house ...
Do you also have the problem with other hotspots?
If not it's a hotspot issue (change wifi channel or something), if so I would advice to test it with a standard rom to be sure.
If it's still bad with the standard rom after that it's probably the hardware of your phone.
Try with another hotspot. If problem remains, do a backup and hard reset, or you can even try a new rom.
I tried the hotspot @ work -> same problem
I tried some other roms -> same problem
I think the antenna is the problem ... does anybody nows where the antenna is located?
Thanks pmneo

WiFi Auto Connect not working properly

I have my home WiFi saved on my OP3. When I go out of the range of it, it gets disconnected (obviously) but when I come back to the range, it does not connect automatically even if the WiFi is ON.
I have not changed any WiFi settings except disabling the WiFi/Bluetooth scan for Location.
Any ideas?
I am on unrooted stock OOS 3.1.2, if that info helps.
^ I have the exact same issue as well.
+1 ... same issue with lots of other issues faced on this device... totally disappointed with it... can't use it for daily use.
just to let you know I am on 3.2.1 so update did not fix the issue
+1 here - my home wifi is dual band, 5ghz is rubbish, takes ages to connect and rarely picks it up if I move out and back in range. I need to manually call the wifi list up and connect. 2.4ghz is marginally better and will autoconnect.
+1 same issue

Question WiFi problems - Do others see them too?

Hello Folks,
In summary, the WiFi stack on OnePlus 11 is quite unstable compared to other smartphones (that are also based on Qualcomm SoC with built-in modems).
First off, I've two 802.11 AC (WiFi 5) routers. Compared to my Asus (ROG 5) and Motorola (Moto G 5G Plus) phones, I've noticed that my new OnePlus has better reception for both mobile and WiFi networks. E.g., at the same location where ASUS has say -30db signal, OnePlus 11 shows -27 or -28db. So performance wise, it's fantastic, however, stability of WiFi connectivity is subpar. Between performance and stability, obviously I always prefer stability. I've up-to-date OnePlus 11 CPH2449 device (CPH2449_11_A.08).
I've been using the phone for about 5 days & these are the three distinctive WiFi problems with OnePlus 11 that I've observed in that duration:
1. WiFi dieing silently:
I've seen many times that all of a sudden the WiFi symbol will disappear. Then checking the status of the connectivity will show that it had silently dropped/died. Sometimes, it'll reconnect on its own within 10 odd seconds. When it doesn't, then toggling WiFi off and then on may help. When even that doesn't help, then toggling airplane mode on and then off becomes necessary/only-way to re-establish the connection. During these episodes, the phone is barely 2 metres away from the routers with a clear/unobstructed line of sight with them. Needless to say, neither ASUS nor Moto exhibit this problem while these episodes are playing out with OnePlus 11.
2. VoWiFi dieing silently:
While operating the phone (non-phone-call situations), a number of times I've seen that the VoWiFi logo would drop and VoLTE logo would appear. Interestingly enough, within a matter of 10+ odd seconds, it'd re-establish the VoWiFi connectivity on its own.
3. WiFi not roaming efficiently:
When moving faraway from one router and close to another, it doesn't roam to the closest one, instead holding onto the furthest one. But putting the phone down for say a minute with the screen off, triggers the roaming to the closest router! WiFi assistant neither helps nor hinders this behaviour.
In short, it'd seem the whole WiFi stack is riddled with stability issues. I've done "Reset Network settings", which didn't help with those issues.
Am I the only one facing these issues?
Thanks for any help/guidance.
Wifi Issue
Anyone have wifi dropping off and reconnecting after flashing to oxygen os? I seem to keep experiencing this. Anyone have any fix?
forum.xda-developers.com
No issues with Wifi.
Just downloaded over 130GB over Wifi and ftp server on the phone without a single interruption. Took over 3 hours and no problem.
I have similar issues. My wifi will randomly drop out and then pick up again in that time sometimes it will say internet offline. I've been noticing it the last week or so when that happens.
I've escalated my problems to OnePlus support. After a number of discussions, I think we got the winner: Disabling ipv6 in my WiFi network seems to stabilise it!
I've been trying this only for the past few hours, but it's proving positive so far. Still I'd prefer to test this over at least a day or two.
I've had WiFi just stop working finds no networks. Even turning the toggle off and back on again doesn't work. But after a reboot works fine again. Mines a euro model on fw09

I've seen similar behaviour. Turning flight mode on and then off helped me on those circumstances. Mine too EU version CPH2449.
Now, if the root cause is identified and addressed, then it ought not to even regularly disconnect from WiFi in the first place, so subsequent problems like reconnection issues can be avoided then.
Disabling ipv6 has proven to be a good workaround for vastly improving my phone's WiFi stability. Of course, they need to identify and resolve the problem that's making WiFi & ipv6 incompatible though.
